What This Data Says About Gates Chili
The five-factor composite scores Gates Chili at 78/100 (Very Good), reflecting a net worth ratio of 7.41% - above the 7.0% NCUA "well capitalized" threshold under Prompt Corrective Action rules. This federal credit union, headquartered in Rochester, New York, reports 2,219 members, $30.5M in total assets, and $13.2M in outstanding loans as of Q4 2025 under charter #16236 (peer group $10M–$50M, a cohort of 1163 similarly-sized institutions).
Deposits deployed into lending sit at a 46.83% loan-to-share ratio, below the 60% band that typically signals under-deployed capital. Loan quality, meanwhile, shows 0.73% of the book 60+ days past due - the peer group average for $10M–$50M credit unions sits at 1.145%, so this institution is running tighter than peers. Return on assets stands at 0.35% on net income of $108K for the period; a not-for-profit cooperative typically runs a modest positive ROA, returning surplus to members through better rates and lower fees rather than to shareholders.
Year-over-year membership changed by 0.09%. All of the above reflects the 2025Q4 quarterly NCUA 5300 Call Report. Who can join depends on the field of membership (currently: Community); our disclaimer covers NCUSIF deposit-insurance coverage and how to use this data responsibly.
